Learning Hybrid Relationships for Person Re-identification

Abstract: Recently, the relationship among individual pedestrian images and the relationship among pairwise pedestrian images have become attractive for person re-identification (re-ID) as they effectively improve the ability of feature representation. In this paper, we propose a novel method named Hybrid Relationship Network (HRNet) to learn the two types of relationships in a unified framework that makes use of their own advantages. Specifically, for the relationship among individual pedestrian images, we take the features of pedestrian images as the nodes to construct a locally-connected graph, so as to improve the discriminative ability of nodes. Meanwhile, we propose the consistent node constraint to inject the identity information into the graph learning process and guide the information to propagate accurately. As for the relationship among pairwise pedestrian images, we treat the feature differences of pedestrian images as the nodes to construct a fully-connected graph so as to estimate robust similarity of nodes. Furthermore, we propose the inter-graph propagation to alleviate the information loss for the fully-connected graph. Extensive experiments on Market-1501, DukeMTMCreID, CUHK03 and MSMT17 demonstrate that the proposed HRNet outperforms the state-of-the-art methods.
